2. Quizzes – Graded in the same format as tests, but the questions will be worth 2-3 points depending on the material.
3. Homework – Graded as a completion grade at least once a week. If all work is complete, the student will receive 10 points (full credit). If the work is not complete, but the student has at least half, 5 points will be given. If less than half of the work is complete, 0 points will be given.
